Song: I Like to see the Raindrops Fall
I wrote the words to this song, which is sung to the tune of Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush:
I like to see the raindrops fall,
the raindrops fall, the raindrops fall
I like to see the raindrops fall
on a stormy day.
I like to hear the thunder clap
the thunder clap, the thunder clap
I like to hear the thunder clap
on a stormy day.
I like to see the lightning flash,
the lightning flash, the lightning flash
I like to see the lightning flash
on a stormy day.
